Nick Reiner Schizophrenia Revealed: Medication Changed Weeks Before Parents Murdered — FBI Analyst Explains

Nick Reiner was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago and was being treated with medication that sources say was working. Then three to four weeks before he allegedly stabbed his parents to death, doctors changed his prescription. That's when he went off the rails. His behavior became erratic and dangerous. His parents saw it. They were alarmed. By the time they brought him to Conan O'Brien's Christmas party on December 13th, they were bringing him just to keep an eye on him. His mother Michele had been telling friends they were at their wits' end.

Less than 24 hours later, Rob and Michele Reiner were dead in the master bedroom of their Brentwood home. Multiple sharp force injuries. Time from injury to death was minutes.

Yesterday high-profile attorney Alan Jackson withdrew from Nick's defense after three weeks of investigation. But before leaving he told reporters Nick is not guilty of murder under California law. He's prohibited from explaining why.

Former FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke joins me to analyze what the behavioral warning signs reveal, how a medication change factors into predicting violence, and what Alan Jackson's exit means for the case ahead. We break down the pattern of escalation in Nick's history and why having unlimited resources couldn't save this family.
